Instrument Categories: Classical and Flamenco, Guitars
The Alhambra 7P Classic is probably our most popular model for the serious student of the classical idiom. With its all solid wood construction, this instrument will develop and grow with you as your skills, technique and repertoire expand.
Alhambra guitars are built by hand at the Alhambra facility in Muro de Alcoy, Alicante, Spain. This wonderful area is a bit closer to Alicante than Valencia, and not too far from the coast of the Baleairic Sea.
Built using the traditional Spanish classical approach with the sides tightly integrated into the neck, the Alhambra 7P Classic features either a Red Western Cedar or German Spruce top, paired with Palisandro or Indian Rosewood. The neck is Spanish cedar with an unbound ebony fingerboard. This guitar uses a full 650mm scale length and 52mm nut width.
The solid bookmatched spruce top on the Alhambra 7P Classic gives excellent note definition and interesting overtone series while the rosewood back and sides impart a warm foundation for the note fundamental and a golden overall tonality.
The Alhambra Model 7P Classic is also available in Cypress construction for the Flamenco player, as the model 7FC.
The 7P Classic carries a gloss finish, and the hardware includes Gold plated tuning machines with ebony buttons.
The choice of Red Western Cedar or German Spruce for the top is up to the player. Both provide an excellent sound and will open and develop with use – the more you play the guitar, the better it sounds. Red Cedar develops more rapidly into a warm, rich tone, while Spruce provides added brilliance and top end, with a faster response.
As with all Alhambra instruments, the Alhambra 7P Classic plays very well as delivered and we will of course set up the guitar to the player’s personal requirements.
We include a hard-shell ‘Everest’ case with the Alhambra 7P Classic.
